That being said, I prefer a PC with windows than a Mac. PCs are cheaper, you don&#39;t have to buy all your stuff from the same guy (overpriced monopoly) and you have much more choices in soft and hard. Macs are nicer, that&#39;s their only advantage, and their users think they are cooler.luxxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14786764535228644685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-62440528583126395752010-03-25T09:36:48.691-07:002010-03-25T09:36:48.691-07:00Go GNU Linux!Go GNU Linux!I.

The &#39;open source&#39; Mach Kernel is no longer open, for one. The iPhone and the iPod are a nightmare of proprietary everything. They basically go out of their way to keep people from enhancing or breaking their own computers in the name of fun.<br /><br /><br />Ah well. Hey Dan: Linux&#39;s mascot is the penguin.

The other computer manufacture&#39;s (IBM, compaq, Tandy, Epson, etc) needed an operating system to sell with their machines and since apple chose to not allow other hardware competitors to use their OS, MS&#39; DOS basically became the only game in town. Thus, as people bought a wide variety of computers, which they had many choices, apple got a great share (20-30%) but that also meant that MS got the remaining market share (70-80%). Which meant that the third party software engineers designed their products, they chose support the largest OS platform... which was MS. <br /><br />Sorry, short story long...Waldonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-492143638303764932010-03-17T16:09:10.619-07:002010-03-17T16:09:10.619-07:00this comic made me feel superior because I love my...this comic made me feel superior because I love my mac. I have to use windows at work and I hate it. My coworkers are always complaining about their home computers, but even though I tell them how amazing my mac is they don&#39;t switch over (well, except for one guy, but he runs mostly windows on his mac). I think it&#39;s partly brand loyalty and fear of differences.Lorihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03942502449985475645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-24296364036381539982010-03-17T15:30:16.253-07:002010-03-17T15:30:16.253-07:00Where&#39;s the exhaust fan for when you light the...Where&#39;s the exhaust fan for when you light the tampons[didn&#39;t see any LEDs in the closeup]?

In the real world it just comes down to doing what people WANT better instead of what you want to be done better.<br /><br />Back in the early days of the personal computer boom the &quot;people&quot; were businesses and large orgs.<br /><br />They didn&#39;t necessarily want the level of technical sophistication Apple offered. What they did want was a more modest set of features at a cheaper price, with more 3rd party support.<br /><br />Apple didn&#39;t achieve that merit at the time. Microsoft did. They won *that* battle.....not the war.<br /><br />Decades later people are fed up with windows and at least at home as well as with new devices, Apple is gaining ground by giving people something better.<br /><br />Meritocracy in the real world.<br /><br />BTW, I&#39;m a linux user who will likely go Mac at home at some point.beforewisdomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08025636743890242228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-75676062376790699132010-03-17T12:06:10.976-07:002010-03-17T12:06:10.976-07:00It&#39;s a fun comic ...
